The Major League Baseball Players Association has finalized a proposal for a 70-game season, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan and Jesse Rogers.
ESPN reports that the league is unlikely to accept the proposal, but that it is close enough that there is optimism for a potential season.
On Wednesday, the league reportedly sent the players' union a proposal for a 60-game season with full prorated salaries. MLB's most recent proposed season would have started on July 19 or 20 and would have been completed in 70 days.
It would have also included expanded playoffs for 2020 and 2021.
